[PATCH v3 03/16] x86/boot: call reloc() using cdecl calling convention

[Daniel Kiper <daniel.kiper@oracle.com>]

reloc() is not called according to cdecl calling convention.
This makes confusion and does not scale well for more arguments.
And patch adding multiboot2 protocol support have to pass 3
arguments instead of 2. Hence, move reloc() call to cdecl
calling convention.

I add push %ebp/mov %esp,%ebp/leave instructions here. Though they
are not strictly needed in this patch. However, then assembly code
in patch adding multiboot2 protocol support is easier to read.

v3 - suggestions/fixes:
   - simplify assembly in xen/arch/x86/boot/reloc.c file
     (suggested by Jan Beulich),
   - reorder arguments for reloc() call from xen/arch/x86/boot/head.S
     (suggested by Jan Beulich),
   - improve commit message
     (suggested by Jan Beulich).
